  • I mean, the three sisters works wonderfully as long as you’re not trying to harvest mechanically or minmax your yields. It’s a great way to produce food for a family or small village with a comparatively small amount of land and effort.

    It’s common in backyard and community gardens for a reason. To my understanding: (1) corn is a fast growing, relatively high yield calorie and carbohydrate source and provides a natural trellis for (2) beans which stabilize the stalks and provide a protein and vitamin source, while (3) squash serves as a ground cover to retain moisture, limit weed growth, and produces fruit high in fiber and vitamin C.

    The beans do fix nitrogen but this only plays a role in replanting for the next season, reducing or eliminating the need to fallow.

    There is no original thought.

    A friend of mine had some explaining to do when he screwed up a dhcp config change and started routing his guest wifi through his “personal” pihole instead of the restricted guest one (he had family/children over often and did not want to be the reason nephew Timmy got an eyeful of wet bush or a beheading).

    His family-friendly pihole was at holypi.lastname.local and his private one was creampi.lastname.local
